First birthday photo ideas for baby girl?

DD turns 1 in 2 months and I am taking her on her birthday to get her pictures taken. I'm not sure how to dress her or what props to bring. I'll probably do a picture in just her bright pink cloth diaper maybe with a cute bow in her hair. Also, her greatgrandmother bought her a beautiful dress but I'm not sure if it will fit her (It is 18 months and she is on the smaller side). Any other ideas? I know tutus are very popular now but I am finding that they are expensive and I don't know if it's worth it to spend 30+ dollars on a tutu that she will wear for a few pictures.

Re: First birthday photo ideas for baby girl?
If you really like the tutu idea you could make one...you just need and elastic band and some tulle which you can get at a craft store. Just cut the tulle into strips and tie it around the elastic. Or you could see if your could buy/borrow one from a friend/family member or ebay/craigslist.
What about using a ribbon and "wrapping" her like a present?
What about having a cupcake as a prop or birthday paper for her to tear into?
Does here nursery have a theme that you could use as a prop? What about a pet name that you use for DD that you could use as a prop (ex: DS room is turtles/sea life and his nick name is monkey man).
Is there a unique nb photo you had taken that you could recreate now that she is 1 yr old?
Just some initial thoughts...
A couple we are doing are:
The cake smash.
Her name is Kaylee, I found a big cardboard "K" and painted it pink for a prop, and the same thing with a big cardboard "1"
We are doing a "Pretty in Pink" party so we got her a pink tutu, matching hair clip, and a couple of big dress up necklaces.
and pretty much anything else pink I can find.
tutus are sooo easy to make! ive made my daughter 3 or 4 of then. you can use a long piece of pretty ribbon to loop the tulle to instead of elastic that way you just tie it into a bow and it will fit around her for a couple of years. there are a lot of tutorials out on pinterest but you can just google them.
